The Saint Mystery Magazine, No. 35

# The Jolly Undertaker by Leslie Charteris

This November 1962 issue features five mystery stories and related content. The lead story, "The Jolly Undertaker" by Leslie Charteris, follows Simon Templar (The Saint) after reading about a break-in at an undertaker's establishment in Lake Worth, Florida that yielded only $7.18. While vacationing on the Florida Gold Coast, Templar accepts an invitation to dinner with Betty Winchester, a 22-year-old whose uncle recently died and has been staying with family friends. The two dine on stone crabs before considering further entertainment. Other featured stories include Stuart Palmer's "Riddle of the Blueblood Murders," Rufus King's "The Case of the Muted Violin," Philip Ketchum's "The Gentle Murderer," and Wenzell Brown's "Seringe Rang0vt." E. Phillips Oppenheim's "Mrs. Block Contributes" concludes the issue. A serialized Saint story by Charteris appears alongside editorial content on writing instruction.
